Hi,
I'm 34 weeks pregnant with gestational; diabetis . I'm on insulin since week 27. Each week it seems that I'm in need of adjusting the dosage to higher. my fastings are still ranging between 100- 107 . Also testing during night time and numbers are ranging between 160 -170 and some times higher , I'm at 10cc of clear insulin in the morning and 34 cc before dinner of the clear and 44 of cloudy insulin before bed time. Also and very strict diet . What can I do take as a home remedy ??? Please help

hello...
welcome to HCM...
strict diabetic diet is a must.
you need to involve in a lot of physical activity like exercises (not too vigorously that it may drastically reduce sugar levels)...
avoid eating sweet and fried foods...
keep a control on the salt intake....
eat vegetables that cut down sugar levels like fenugreek ...

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to your history given here I could say that if this is the gestational diabetes then there is no home remedy for this insulin is the only option and that is your are on it, at the most you can control the diet, take care and have a nice day.
